In many ways it was both a successful and frustrating year for Brandon Roy. The season began with Roy and offseason acquisition Andre Miller struggling to mesh on the court, then Roy settled into his own offensive groove in December before missing 15 games in January with an injured hamstring.

Roy returned to the lineup to help guide Portland to a playoff berth and consecutive 50-win seasons, but a torn meniscus in his right knee caused him to miss the final two games of the regular season and put his availability for the playoffs in doubt.

All told, the three-time All-Star missed 16 games but still remained as productive as we've come to expect. Roy led the Blazers in scoring a team-best 36 times, netted 20-plus points in 41 games and ranked second on the team in assists, leading Portland 24 times.

Roy scored 23 points or more in 15 straight appearances (12/1-1/2), the longest string of 23-point games in a season in franchise history (27.9 ppg). He became the third-fastest Trail Blazer to record his first 5,000 points in Portland (247 games) Jan. 10 vs. Cleveland.

Roy ranked 11th among NBA leaders in scoring and was one of four NBA players that averaged at least 21.5 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 4.7 assists (Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Dwayne Wade). Roy finished in the Top 20 in the NBA in free throws made (19th, 343) and attempted (16th, 440), minutes per game (18th, 37.2) and PER (16th, 21.3).

Roy, who was selected to the All-NBA third team following the season, became just the third Trail Blazer to receive the All-NBA honor more than once, joining Bill Walton and Clyde Drexler.

Roy was again a reserve for Game 5 in Phoenix but his surgically-repaired knee appeared to be more of a factor as Roy went just 2-for-7, scoring just five points and collecting four fouls in 19 minutes.

In his first start of the playoffs in Game 6, he scored 14 points but struggled from the field (4-for-16 FG, 1-for-8 3 PT). Overall, Roy totaled 29 points (10-for-23), 7-for-9 from the line, seven rebounds, five assists and three turnovers in 83 minutes on a hobbled knee this postseason.
